got a bit overexcited on the way home. was definitely doing more than 40kph in the (empty) bike lane, sorry 😳 #cycling #biketooter #velophants #travel #colombia
finally reunited with rojita today! new gears, new chain, new freehub, new discs, new bartape, new bike? #cycling #biketooter #velophants #travel #colombia
that was amazing! colombians know how to party alright. wonder how contreras is feeling now he’s beaten carapaz… #procycling #cycling #biketooter #travel #colombia
listo!
i had planned to get the train back. went to buy a ticket yesterday and was told to come back today. which i did, and was told to get it on the train. by the time i found the conductor, he said it was sold out… so a bus it was #travel #colombia
while carapaz was out destroying the others on a 2,000m climb, i popped down to the salt cathedral in zipaquira. the miners built it in their spare time and it’s huge. each station of the cross has its own chapel with a cavern stretching out behind it. the naves of the cathedral are on another level, underneath. it’s all very modernist. while i’ve no time for the church, i’m always impressed by their dedication. zipa’s lovely #travel #colombia
